Swing Both Ways: The 11 Best Dual Sport Motorcycles

As familiar as your high school parking lot, there’s been very little alteration made to the XT250 since it first debuted in 1980. It sits low, offering a respectable ground clearance of 11″+ with the seat being a hair below 31″ off the ground. Notable for a dual sport, since most modern models assume everyone in the world is over 5’9″ and bowlegged. This is a true dirt dog that can handle your town roads, city streets, and some lesser highways, but it’s not going to shine tackling Route 66. Purchase: $5,200+
